JJ Johnson Posted January 25, 2006 Report Posted January 25, 2006 Sorry, I had to make that pun. It was right there. I apologize. Anyway, I realize it's a little early, but some are going to be writing all week anyway, so pshaw. JJ Johnson, taking the 'logic' out of 'chronological'. Oh, and 0. And until my mom leaves town tonight, it stays at 0.
Bruce Blank Posted January 25, 2006 Report Posted January 25, 2006 Well this is early but still if there ever was a PPV to get cracking early this would be it and honestly?? 6772 words but for which match? ahhh that is the mystery isn't it *shifty eyes* I'll just leave people guessing
super_tigris Posted January 26, 2006 Report Posted January 26, 2006 Nearing 1500 or so, probably another 2 or 3k at max. Haven't really decided where I want to take the match, and I'm leaning in the direction of "More is Best".
JJ Johnson Posted January 26, 2006 Author Report Posted January 26, 2006 3500 on the dot, and I'm probably going to quit for the day in another half hour. Quit for yesterday, that is - it's 2:30 AM right now. A most lifeless existence I lead.
muzz Posted January 26, 2006 Report Posted January 26, 2006 This is going to be difficult for me. Usually I wait until the last night to finish the match in one sitting, but I doubt I can do 15000 in a single sitting. Maybe two 7500 sittings.
King Cucaracha Posted January 26, 2006 Report Posted January 26, 2006 0. I intend starting on Friday and expect to give up on Saturday. Then, hopefully, I can have a bunch of people imploring me to tack on an ending and show, then spend Sunday editing and stuff before sending it, thus going by the exact same formula as last year.
Vasarian_Brandy Posted January 26, 2006 Report Posted January 26, 2006 I have nothing yet, but I have an outline. I have a plan. And I might just start on it while I'm awake... Update to come later.
JHawk Posted January 26, 2006 Report Posted January 26, 2006 0. And nothing before tomorrow. But I think I could pound this one out in my sleep if need be.
Vasarian_Brandy Posted January 26, 2006 Report Posted January 26, 2006 Did you realize that, when you combine all the stats sheets for the CFers together, it's about 25,000 words... ...And -62- pages in WordPerfect??? I do now. And no, I didn't get any actual match done.
Bruce Blank Posted January 26, 2006 Report Posted January 26, 2006 now THERE is a useless stat *thumbs up*
Vasarian_Brandy Posted January 26, 2006 Report Posted January 26, 2006 now THERE is a useless stat *thumbs up* Glad to have helped fill your mind with "shit that no one gives a flying fuck about".
super_tigris Posted January 26, 2006 Report Posted January 26, 2006 Oh, and by the way, if this is specifically for the 'Fuck itself, then I feel incredibly silly.
Cuban Linx Posted January 27, 2006 Report Posted January 27, 2006 Like seemingly everyone else i'm at 0 words, but i've got my match mostly planned out start to finish. A little research to go and them the plan is to write this thing out over two days. I'll no doubt waste the majority of one of those days, but i've done a 14000 word match in one sitting before so i'll get a match done even if it kills me.
Bruce Blank Posted January 27, 2006 Report Posted January 27, 2006 14000 in one sitting man i can do 1500 - 2000 words at a time then my attention starts to wander off I'm doing just fine, writing along and the... hey what's that on TV?
Bruce Blank Posted January 28, 2006 Report Posted January 28, 2006 Well I'm done for the day and I'm looking at around 9000 words for one of my PPV matches so yes I've obviously chosen one to write but it's 1 AM here and I'm off to bed
JHawk Posted January 28, 2006 Report Posted January 28, 2006 Barely 3000 so far, but I'm less than halfway through.
Sly Posted January 28, 2006 Report Posted January 28, 2006 I've got about 1.5k of a match that I'm not sure I'm even happy with. Lets see if I show.
King Cucaracha Posted January 28, 2006 Report Posted January 28, 2006 I'm clogged down with life-threatening, evil death flu (or 'the sniffles' for any women reading), so I'm not doing too well. Roughly 1.8k.
JHawk Posted January 28, 2006 Report Posted January 28, 2006 Um...12 pages of 10-point Times New Roman font. 5k or so I think, I forgot to check before I wentto bed last night.
Cuban Linx Posted January 28, 2006 Report Posted January 28, 2006 Totally wasted a day and did nothing more than some intro stuff. In other words, i'm right on target with where i expected i'd be.
Sly Posted January 28, 2006 Report Posted January 28, 2006 I got another thousand, and now I'm bored.
Smartly Pretty Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 1087. Things are tough for grounded people.
Zack Malibu Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 Goddammit, I'm nearly 3/4 the way done, and I have no idea if I can finish by tonight.
Vasarian_Brandy Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 The match... She does not go well. (Sigh) (The red one being me, the blue being the match)
Bruce Blank Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 Well this will be the last time I'll post an actual number cause I'm DONE BABY!! *Steals Dillon's jig and does it instead* and the final count? 23987 words that's right I showed BOTH matches 15002 words for the Clusterfuck and 8985 words of violence for the Japanese Deathmatch now excuse me if I NEVER EEEEEEEEEEEVER attempt anything as insane again (Note: in case you were wondering I was planning on showing both matches all along - but it'd take the guessing out of it if i just said so )
muzz Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 And to think Matthews wrote about that much just for the Clusterfuck match. Ugh, that would have been hell.
Bruce Blank Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 I know - sign me up as a big fan of the word limit on this beast of a match, or people would need 3 weeks off work or school to write the winning match.
